Question #1 Report Error
Escape velocity depends on:
A. Planet mass and radius
B. Atmosphere
C. Projectile mass
D. Launch angle

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
v_e = √(2GM/R): depends on planet's M and R, independent of projectile mass or launch direction. Memory tip: 'v_e ∝ √(M/R); property of planet, not projectile'. Gravitation concept frequently tested in competitive exams.

The phenomenon of photoelectric emission occurs only when incident light has:
A. Any frequency if intensity is high
B. Long wavelength
C. High intensity
D. Frequency above threshold

Correct Answer: Option D


Explanation:
Photoelectric effect requires photon energy hν ≥ work function φ of metal. Thus frequency ν must exceed threshold ν₀ = φ/h, regardless of intensity. Intensity affects number of electrons, not emission possibility. Memory aid: 'Photoelectric: frequency threshold (quantum effect); intensity affects current, not emission'. This quantum physics concept is frequently tested in competitive exams. Always distinguish classical wave prediction (intensity-dependent) from quantum reality (frequency-dependent); this was key evidence for photons.

Question #3 Report Error
Which of the following statements is correct for an object moving with constant speed?
A. It must have zero acceleration
B. Its displacement equals distance
C. It may have acceleration
D. Its velocity is constant

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Constant speed does not imply zero acceleration if direction changes, e.g., uniform circular motion has centripetal acceleration. Velocity may change direction. Displacement magnitude ≤ distance. So only option B is correct.
